New mechanism of plasmons specific for spin-polarized nanoparticles (open access)

New mechanism of plasmons specific for spin-polarized nanoparticles

This article experimentally shows that Co nanoparticles with a single-domain crystal structure support a plasmon resonance at approximately 280 nm with better quality than gold nanoparticle resonance in the visible. The magnetic nature of these nanoparticles suggests a new type of these plasmons.

Entropic Approach to the Detection of Crucial Events (open access)

Entropic Approach to the Detection of Crucial Events

This article establishes a clear distinction between two processes yielding anomalous diffusion and 1/ f noise. One of the processes, Aging Fractional Brownian Motion (AFBM), has been concluded to be the form of communication between the heart and the brain.

A Tough, Water-Resistant, High Bond Strength Adhesive Derived from Soybean Meal and Flexible Hyper-Branched Aminated Starch (open access)

A Tough, Water-Resistant, High Bond Strength Adhesive Derived from Soybean Meal and Flexible Hyper-Branched Aminated Starch

This article highlights the development of a flexible long-chain starch with a hyper-branched structure (HD), and incorporating it with SM and a crosslinking agent to prepare a novel SM adhesive. Results showed that this adhesive exhibited both excellent water resistance and enhanced toughness. The wet bond strength of plywood fabricated using this adhesive was 354.5% higher than that of SM adhesive.
